Today it updated and it started happening to me too, not only I can't seek, the mute and pause buttons don't work either. It's like once in full screen the whole interface can't be touched.
While on the feed: I can unmute.
On full screen: the controls related to the video don't work, the others (close, up/down vote, open comments, etc) work fine.
Some Lemmy instances, including lemmy.world, are misconfigured for video/audio streaming. If the video is hosted on one of those instances, that could be the reason.
Same problem since the update. Deleting and reinstalling the app does not fix the issue. / Issue resolved for me in latest update January 15th 2026. thanks
